How to find your Pa. polling place
Polling places can change between elections. Here's how to confirm where you are assigned to vote.
You might want to double-check you know your polling place before heading out to vote.
Most polling places don’t change between elections, but there are always some that elections officials have to move for a variety of reasons. This year, the Fox Chase Elementary polling place had to move to the nearby Fox Chase rec center after there weren’t enough power outlets for the new electronic poll books.
Officials temporarily also moved many polling places in the last few years because of COVID, so the place you cast a ballot last time might not be open this time.
